Quotes from the report ...

"... TSA is purchasing and installing explosives detection systems (EDS) and equipment that will greatly accelerate the deployment of new technologies in airports across the country. These ARRA funds will not only improve security, but also will create jobs and strengthen our economy."

More relevant to IDOI:

"With the support of this Subcommittee, we are expediting the upgrading of technology at passenger checkpoints and for checked baggage screening. AT X-Ray and WBI technologies greatly enhance our ability to detect small IED components made of common items, which remain the greatest threat, resulting in fewer bag checks and faster throughput, as well as the ability to upgrade the system with enhanced algorithms. WBI technologies enable TSA to detect prohibited items such as weapons, explosives, and other metallic and non-metallic objects concealed under layers of clothing without physical contact. TSA will continue to deploy in 2009 Bottled Liquid Scanners that are used to ensure sealed containers do not contain threat liquids. Additionally, TSA is purchasing and installing reduced-size explosive detection systems (EDS) to increase security effectiveness and improve operational efficiencies through improved throughput."
